Abstract (en)

A barrel type air outlet (24) is provided for an opening in an instrument panel (12) or other panel or compartment of a vehicle. The air outlet contains two sets of stationary vanes (46,48) for directing a stream of air. The first set of stationary vanes (46) is oriented parallel to the longitudinal and transverse axes (38,40) of the barrel and to one another to direct the stream of air in a jet flow pattern. The second set of stationary vanes (48) is oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis and nonparallel to the transverse axis and nonparallel to one another to direct the stream of air in a diffuse pattern to avoid direct impingement of the stream of air on the driver or other occupants of the vehicle. <IMAGE>
